Details of experience
I had the most incredible midwife throughout my whole pregnancy and labour. After I had my baby, my partner and I stayed in the hospital for an additional 3 nights, we both were provided delicious meals and every midwife that came to assist were extremely kind and full of knowledge regarding many aspects such as different ways of breastfeeding etc. I couldn't fault the service I received and will definitely be going back to this hospital for all future births.
